DIY SILLY HUNGRY FISH CUP GAME FOR KIDS

This Silly Hungry Fish Cup Game can be made with simple materials you probably already have on hand and is a winner with kids every time! It”s a fun party game or a quick activity when you need something delightful to entertain the kids. The free printable included makes it easy to personalize your fish!

Use a small piece of cardboard cut into a “U” shape (hint: the width of the cardboard will be the ultimate size of your pom pom), wind the yarn around 50-75 times. Cut a separate length of yarn about 18″ long. Cinch the center of the looped yarn with the long piece of yarn (tie it tight with a knot so your pom pom stays together!) Then Cut the looped ends of the yarn. Rub the little ball to fluff out all the strands. Voila! Pom pom fish food.

3) Put it all together.

Simply hot glue the end of the long piece of yarn to the bottom of the inside of the cup. Once it dries…play away! You can play with the length of yarn…the longer the yarn, the more difficult it is to get the pom pom into the cup.

How to play: Hang the pom pom out of the cup. Try to toss it into the Fish’s mouth to feed that hungry fish! How many times in a row can you do it?
